Lovers of the Fifth Street

The lovers of the fifth street" is filled with far-fetched repeated figures of metaphor and simile; though there are few direct references to some feasible modern issues that one can witness in our world, the main focus has been yet given to the use of figurative language; by doing so, the readers won't be bothered and confused; their minds will stay alerted and sensitive towards the hidden concepts while they play joyfully through the lines.

The poetry has been built upon a modern scenery; the symbol of modernity (New York) is presented with a mixture of different concepts that reminds us all of the different facets of «vividness»: art, culture and the coffeeshop dynamic culture.

Since this book is the second volume of the «New York Winter Poetry Trilogy» the same atmosphere had to be reminded to the audience; but this time there has been a shift in the locations of events; new notions have been also added as the story line moves forward; the light has been shed on different and important slants; matters of racism, international interdisciplinary discriminations and the metamorphosis of human abstruse and complex relations; «lovers of the fifth street» is now a more comprehensive work; a combination of social, humanitarian and international concerns.
